Estói is an enchanted historical village hidden in an Algarve that
doesn’t match the ideal of beach, tourist resorts and golf. This small,
yet rich, location that sits a few kilometres from Faro, has just one
of those attractions that you could, better, should not miss! If you’re
passing by (and if you’re not... try to), make sure you find your way
to see the Milreu Roman Ruins.
With
approximately 12000 visitors a year, this national monument was once
home for an agricultural exploration, also made of a rural residence.
This residence, initially small, kept growing and growing. Big
landlords came to Estoi and started building big houses, luxuriously
decorated with tiles and marble that can still be seen today. The only
inconvenient about this place comes when we are talking about disabled
facilities. Although there are ramps for wheelchairs, their movement
around the archaeological site is very difficult.
